An under appreciated gem from the early 90's. amazing song writing. This CD version is the definitive one to get IMHO, as the original LP pressing has been plagued with noise issues from what I've heard.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the inner sleeve contributed to the noisiness of these. When I took the record out it just felt grainy. The end of Down Colorful Hill sounded like shit, and I noticed a little flick of paper at the needle. I am going to clean this and see if that improves the sound...

I can verify the noise issues and I'm somehow happy it's not just me, I mean I tried to learn everything about the "s" noise on vinyl records but I don't really see any problems in my turntable set up. I always wanted this album on vinyl and it still sounds awesome, a few distortions here and there are not enough to kill the joy of listening to this masterpiece.
